Abstract/Contents:"A fungicide trial was conducted on a 15-yr-old sward of creeping bentgrass grown on a sand/peat root zone (pH 6.2) at the Georgia Experiment Station. Fertilizer treatments consisted of 1.0 lb and 0.5 lb nitrogen (Lesco 24-4-10) per 1000 sq ft applied on 5 May and 8 Sep, respectively. The turfgrass was maintained at a height of 0.2-in. by mowing three times per week. The objective of the trial was to establish a management program that provides disease control and high turf quality throughout the bentgrass management year with a rotation of fungicides. Treatments were arranged as plots (3.3 ft x 5 ft) in a randomized complete block design with four replications. Initial fungicide applications were made 12 Jun. Subsequent sequential applications were made at a 14-day interval. There were 6 applications total. The last application was performed 21 Aug. Fungicides were applied using 2.5 gal of water per 1,000 sq ft with a wheel-mounted, CO2-pressured boom sprayer at 30 psi using XR TeeJet 8002VS nozzles. The turfgrass was inoculated with an autoclaved tall fescue/barley/wheat seed mixture infested with a bentgrass isolate of R. solani, 24 hr after the initial applications. The plots received approximately 0.24 in. of irrigation water daily at 15:00 and 17:00 hr to ensure foliar wetness for infection. Visual ratings were performed at 7- to 14-day intervals from the initial application date. Values were subjected to analysis of variance and means were statistically separated using Fisher's protected LDS at α=0.05. Brown patch incidence progressed rapidly reaching =70% on 8 Aug. Program #2 and #3 provided significant (α<0.05) disease suppression compared to the non-treated check. Program #2 provided the highest turf quality (data not shown)."
